          Nope, sorry lads. That won't hurt Trump's base ...especially if the economy keeps improving. But I do appreciate Charles Krauthammer's opinion.

            And you're basically acknowledging that Americans voted against their own interests when they elected Trump. You're now arguing that Trump's election was in the world's interests, not the American people's.

            In the list of atrocities committed around the world dismissing a bunch of transsexuals from serving is really low on my list. I hope Trump starts dismissing women serving overseas in pointless neverending conflicts next. Then men. Let national defence mean exactly that.

That doesn't mean they should just ignore the law. Using your logic, a pro-life person might say that the freedom of the "unborn baby" is more important than the freedom of the woman to abort and therefore kidnapping her and forcing her to birth is "more free". Your super-genius judgement doesn't entitle you to ignore laws. It does allow you to try and change them.

              Before someone starts posting about these guys using polygamy as a smokescreen for marrying underage girls and basically brainwashing them, I am speaking more generally about group marriages with competent adults able to consent, not be coerced, etc.

                        I think there would be few objections to polygamy if they were marrying 45 year olds as one comedienne suggested. Though I imagine that in the event of a group divorce things could get dicey in a situation where the wife is entitled to half the assets in the case of multiple wives.

                            You're no more clever than Belzberg or Drkulec. You're arguing against points I've never attempted to make. I never said I knew the "gender, sexual preferences, and ethnicity of all the people in the picture." Revisit what I said:

                            "Trump, and the Republican Party as a whole, are notoriously bad at working with the other. It's truly the party of straight, white males."

                            All I said was that Trump, and the Republican Party as a whole, are bad at working with people other than straight, white males. This is a demonstrable fact. Both in their voting block and in the makeup of the party--both at the state and federal level--the party is vastly underrepresented by women, people of color, and people from queer communities, especially when compared to the Democratic Party.

                            Then I posted a picture that exemplifies that. I did nothing more. I never said I knew anything about every individual in the picture. Get a clue. Be a big boy. Respond to the shit in bold. You said you like people who can work with others; then why do you support Trump, when the Republican Party, and Trump in particular, have trouble working with those different from themselves?

                              You conservatives need to get together and decide whether I'm white or not. According to you, I apparently am, but according to the Whissell I'm an "immigrant" with a "home country" other than Canada because I'm an Indian.

                              Make up your collective Trump-loving mind.

                                I apologize. I thought the reason you posted the picture was to show that Republicans are all straight, white, males. If not, then I am unclear on the point of the picture. Is it to show Trump is popular, or that people applaud him or ...?

                                Trump seems to get along with Putin. Putin has nukes. I care more about whether two guys with nukes get along than if Trump gets along with Meryl Streep, Rosie O'Donnell or Alex Baldwin. That's why I referenced Clinton talking about Putin when I said "getting along with folks". I guess that was me not being clear.

                                To clarify, here is the link and my comment referencing it:

                                https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqAM1rTY6jA

                                I prefer people who can work with other folks. I am no fan of Putin but if the US can have military bases around the world, why can't other countries?
